Seasonality: The Best Month to List in Lakeway and Bee Cave

What is the best time of year to list a home in Lakeway and Bee Cave? A seasonal decomposition of 24 months of data reveals a distinct pattern where activity peaks in spring and summer before tapering off. ALEX Intelligence analyzed closed sales from November 2024 through October 2026 to identify the optimal listing window. The data shows that May and June consistently deliver the highest sales volumes, with 112 and 133 closings respectively. These months also tend to command strong prices, though April often sees a slight dip in median price before the summer surge. Conversely, late autumn and early winter see reduced activity. October closed at 63 sales, down 30.8% from September, while November historically drops another 18.6% compared to the prior month. Despite lower volume, prices remain resilient; the October median of $860,000 was up 13.2% year-over-year and 2.6% higher than September. For sellers, the data suggests listing in May or June to maximize exposure during peak buyer activity. However, if a property is priced correctly, it can still sell at a premium in October, as evidenced by the current median price being the highest of the fall season. Buyers should note that while competition eases in November, inventory levels often tighten, potentially limiting choices for those waiting until the new year. The analysis confirms that while spring offers volume, late autumn offers price strength with less competition. Want a closer look? Reply or call George at 713.918.9951 and we'll set up a showing.
